Re: All Paid Work
We know that was Aristiotle's opinion so are we to take it that it's also yours?

Re: All Paid Work
I didn't know Aristotle had said that, now I do, what am I to do with it I wonder, the realities are that I must do just that: seek paid work - as most must.

Notice any contradiction in your thoughts?Bill Wiltrack wrote:All labor that uplifts humanity has dignity and importance and should be undertaken with painstaking excellence.

Or do you think any paid work cannot uplifit humanity? If so you appear to be contradicting your 'way'?
Re: All Paid Work
And if we added the word "unpaid" before M.L. King´s "labor" ?
"All unpaid labor that uplifts humanity .... "
"All unpaid labor that uplifts humanity .... "

WOW!
Thank you for bringing up this connection between two seemingly incongruent thoughts!
I personally would go with the quote from perhaps the greatest modern philosopher that I know of, Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr..
All labor that uplifts humanity has dignity and importance and should be undertaken with painstaking excellence.

Thank you for participating within this thread on this seemingly holy Martin Luther King Day here in the states.

MLK Day is just another lost day of production.
